This paper examines different factors affecting mechanical properties of masonry in compression. Experimental investigations of high precision hollow calcium silicate block masonry with thin layer and general purpose mortar bed joints are presented. Characteristic compressive strength of such masonry determined by experiments was compared with the one which was established by Eurocode 6 [1] method. The analysis of the results of high precision calcium silicate block masonry investigations revealed that the values of the characteristic compressive strength of masonry with thin layer bed joints defined by EC6 method exceed the values determined by experiments made in accordance with EN 1052-1 [21]. According to the results of experimental research, some suggestions are made on how to specify the characteristic compressive strength of masonry which is produced from 1st and 2nd group hollow calcium silicate blocks with thin layer bed joints.

W artykule analizowano różnego typu czynniki wpływające na właściwości mechaniczne muru ściskanego. Przedstawiono badania doświadczalne murów wykonanych z bloczków silikatowych drążonych o cienkich spoinach warstwowych. Wytrzymałość charakterystyczną na ściskanie takich murów otrzymaną w badaniu porównano z metodą określania wytrzymałości podaną w Eurokodzie 6 [1]. Analiza wyników badań murów wykonanych z bloczków silikatowych wykazała, że wartości charakterystycznej wytrzymałości na ściskanie takich murów określonych zgodnie z metodą podaną w EC6 mogą przekraczać wartości wytrzymałości otrzymane w wyniku badań doświadczalnych wykonanych zgodnie z normą EN 1052-1 [21]. Na podstawie wyników badań eksperymentalnych przedstawiono propozycje określenia charakterystycznej wytrzymałości na ściskanie muru który jest produkowany z 1 i 2 grupy bloków silikatowych drążonych o cienkich spoinach warstwowych.
